The lord hunted down by the game

Chapter 46 The British Army Fighting Around
In other words, as long as the Sauron family unified the thirteen North American states.

The two vast colonies of the British Empire, the Canadian Colony and the Louisiana Colony, are simply powerless to resist. As long as the Sauron family can afford troops and is willing to bear the high cost of ruling, they can win.

As for the west coast of North America, one part is controlled by the Spaniards and the other part is the Indians living happily...

As far as the colonization of North America is concerned, it is undoubtedly the Spaniards who have the longest time and achieved the greatest results.

It's a pity that the decline of the Kingdom of Spain led to the poor military strength of the colonies. Let alone confrontation with the British Empire, Spain can't find North even if it pulls out any European power.

The premise is that the army can be transported to the New World, and there is enough shipping capacity to maintain a large amount of army consumption...

War in the New World and war in Europe are completely different concepts.

The European war now has a rudimentary mobilization system, and it is not impossible to mobilize hundreds of thousands or even millions of cannon fodder to the battlefield in an all-out war.

The Russian Empire often does this...

The only thing that limits the mobilization of troops is not population, but finances!

But in the New World of America, an army of over [-] is already terrifying, enough to turn a colonial state into a mess.

For example, the Sauron family, a mere [-] Sauron Legion shook Georgia to death.

Tens of thousands of people fighting in the New World of America is a rare and decisive battle.

In the European continent of this world, tens of thousands of people fighting can only be regarded as partial battles...

Of course, this is only aimed at the European powers, such as those small European countries, the total standing army of the entire country is only tens of thousands...

The European powers in this world are completely different from the European powers in Yuri's previous life at the same time.

In Yuri's previous life, the British Empire at the same time had less than [-] white standing troops, but in this new world where Yuri lived, the British Empire invested hundreds of thousands in the continent alone!
Of course, more than half of these hundreds of thousands of miles are colonial servants...

However, the colonies of the British Empire are all over the world, and there are many places where troops need to be stationed, and they are not only fighting in one place on the continent of Europe. Even so, they can invest hundreds of thousands of troops, which is enough to show how powerful the British Empire is in this world.

Obviously, Earl Sauron is well aware of the strength of the British Empire.

Therefore, after forcefully suppressing the underdogs who emerged due to the military system reform in Georgia, Angrus began to become hesitant.

According to the battle plan reached with Yuri, after the Sauron Legion absorbs the 'elites' of the security team, completes the training and restores its combat effectiveness, it is time to launch a surprise attack on Savannah City, which is located at the mouth of the Savannah River.

Disarm or destroy the Georgia standing garrison there which is part of the British Empire.

In this way, all of the territory of Georgia belonged to the Sauron family, and the remaining small and medium-sized nobles were powerless to resist the suppression of the Sauron Legion, so they could only choose to compromise and perish.

Savannah is not only the base camp of the standing army directly under the British Empire in Georgia, but also the only large port city in Georgia and an important shipping port in Georgia.

Occupying here, the Sauron family can conduct open and aboveboard smuggling trade with the European powers.

The British Empire is much stronger in this world than Yuri's previous life, but it also has many more enemies, which matches the soaring strength of the British Empire.

As long as the Sauron family rebels, Angelus can be 100% sure that the European powers will support them, even if this support only stops at political slogans and a small amount of material smuggling.

However, no matter how little it is, it is meat, not to mention the small amount of military supplies for those big powers is not a small amount for the Sauron family.

With the shipping technology of this era, as long as you have a good port, it is basically impossible to block shipping smuggling.

Moreover, it is impractical to block the port from the sea. Large ports are guarded by fortress artillery. It is a very stupid act to use naval artillery to bombard the port fortress.

The fortress guns are all built in solid fortresses, and it may not be a problem to take a round of solid bullets. Moreover, the caliber of the fortress guns is often larger than that of naval guns, with a longer range and a hit rate far higher than that of naval guns floating on the sea.

Therefore, it is difficult for the navy to enter the port to impose a blockade.

If it is blocked outside the range of the fortress's guns, the distance is too far and impractical. After all, the sailors on the ship also have to eat and drink, and the battleship cannot be allowed to stay adrift in the ocean.

It is not impossible to do that, but the cost of war is too high, and the blockade effect is not 100%.

So, Savannah is very important to Georgia.

In addition to the geographical factors of the port, Savannah is also a rich trading capital. At least in Georgia, Savannah is richer than Augusta, the political capital.

There are also a large number of mature arsenals in the city, and it is one of the few cities in Georgia that has initially completed industrialization.

The only one left is Augusta...

In any case, if you want Georgia to become independent, you must occupy Savannah, otherwise there will be a steady stream of British troops landing in Savannah to attack the Sauron family.

Now the Sauron family has not raised the flag to rebel, and in the eyes of outsiders, there is no need for the Sauron family to rebel.

The Sauron family is the local emperor in Georgia. They don't live a good life. There are important people who want money and money. Why rebel?

For illusory ambitions?

Ambition may be shared by many people, but it also depends on strength. The size of the British Empire is so different from that of the Sauron family that no one would doubt that Earl Sauron is out of his mind and wants to be king...

This is like would a person suspect that an ant is going to defeat him?
Even if the ant is really brain-dead, the big deal is that the person is bitten while taking a nap, and slaps him to death when he wakes up.

Because of this, the British Empire had no defense against the Sauron family at all.

Even the proud British Empire did not pay enough attention to the chaos in the north of the thirteen colonial states in North America.

Since the Boston Tea Party, many people have been arrested and city officials have been sacked, but the heavy taxes from the London government of the British Empire have not changed!
The London government believes that as long as the perpetrators are dealt with, it is over...

The British Empire opened so many battlefields that it was impossible to reduce taxes.

Not to mention the main battlefield in continental Europe, the British army in the Indian subcontinent is still working to conquer northern India and completely wipe out the declining Mughal Empire and the Marat Alliance.

In the South Seas region, the British Empire is snatching colonies from the declining Republic of the United Provinces of the Sea Coachmen of the Netherlands.

In Central America, local frictions between the British Empire and the Spanish colonial authorities have not stopped, and many islands have been occupied!
